Have a look at the EVGA forums and in the 980ti thread, someone gives details of a place that had just got them in stock. I saw it earlier on and placed my order from there.


I'm gonna go eat some brand new eggs, go to the bathroom use that bog roll then you can feel free to eat the left overs :)

For those interested here's a recording of my two 980Ti's inside my NZXT H440 running 3DMark Firestrike. Note the camera was placed where my chair is, so where I sit.

Should have left mine as standard reference design instead of changing it to SC ACX 2.0 lol...

I feel like calling and having a go at them for the serious lack in communication... Simple answer, are they expecting stock today or not? It's not ****ing hard to find out. Call the ****ing vendor and ask??????????

Just looked at my order time: Order Date: 1 Jun, 15, 1:45 pm :(

Just called and the usual bul**** of "No information".

If the order doesn't update with at least a new ETA by 3pm today, I'm cancelling my order and going elsewhere. This is a ****ing joke.

Yeah I don't understand how in this day and age nobody knows about when they are arriving in stock.

Surely they can contact the vendor like you said and ask if the delivery van is on the way lol

OCUK: When is the delivery van due to arrive?
Dave: Bob left the warehouse at ..... and will be with you .....
OCUK: Ok thanks

I got the MSI version a few days back and so far so good. I was concerened about noise but so far its a touch quiter than my old Zotac 780 but its not been tested really yet.

Still on 1080p but new monitor due today from Ocers so I'll try it out properly over the weekend.

They can only give you information if the vendor supplies it, it's hardly OCUK's fault.

No, it's not, but it's their responsibility to provide solid information on an item they have sold me. Not vague rubbish.

Yep, no balls or just sheer laziness. It's a phone call to their rep or sales contact. Sure it might take a few times to get through as no doubt they are probably ducking out of line of fire lol. But still. As it stands, it feels like the staff at OcUK are sat back in their chairs waiting for stuff to happen. Not proactive at all and as a result, they have lost my business from future 'pre orders' with ETA's slapped on the front.

OcUK, seriously. Get hold of the situation and provide a solution.
